3 + 4abs(x/2 + 3) = 11 Subtract 3
4 abs(x/2 + 3) = 11 - 3
4 abs(x/2 + 3) = 8 Divide by 4
abs(x/2 + 3) = 8/4
abs(x/2 + 3) = 2

Solution 1
x/2 + 3 = 2 Subtract 3
x/2 = 2 - 3
x/2 = - 1 Multiply by 2
x/2 *2 = - 2
x = - 2

Solution 2
x/2 + 3 = - 2
x/2 = - 2 - 3
x/2 = - 5 Multiply by 2
x = -5 * 2
x = -10

Solutions
x = - 2 <<<< answer 1
x = -10 <<<< answer 2

What number should be added to both sides of the equation to complete the square x^2+3x=6
Allisa [31]
Take half of the coefficient of x:  It is 3, and half that is 3/2.


Then   <span>x^2+3x=6  becomes:

</span><span>           x^2+3x + (3/2)^2 =6 + (3/2)^2, and

             (x+3/2)^2 = 6 + 9/4

You were not asked to solve the equation, but why not do it for the practice?

</span>Solve (x+3/2)^2 = 6 + 9/4 for x.  There will be 2 values.

Evaluate the function f(x) = 2x3 - 6x + 1 for f(-2).
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

- 3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2 {x}^{3}  - 6x + 1 \\ plugging \: x =  - 2 \\ f( - 2) = 2( { - 2})^{3}  - 6( - 2)+ 1  \\  = 2 \times ( - 8) + 12 + 1 \\  =  - 16 + 13 \\  =  - 3 \\ f( - 2) =  - 3
